I was on my way home from trying to capture some of Texas' great spring wildflowers one evening when I passed this beautiful park in Blanco, Texas. When I stopped, there was almost this surreal feeling of being in a Norman Rockwell picture. People were walking around holding hands and smiled. Children were swinging and giggling. Dogs were wading in the water trying to catch fish. It was a perfect spring feeling!!!

I can hear cicada's buzzing faintly in the distant trees! Your pictures always make me homesick... but in a good way. They are always little slices of everything I love about Texas.
Don't you love it when your out looking for something in particular and run up on a treasure like this? Lovely capture. The color of the water and sky are amazing.
Hello Sandy, this is really quite excellent and I'm surprised it did not place higher. You have a great eye and I'm sure we'll be seeing a lots more fantastic entries on the horizon.
Absolutely beautiful!!! I think the water looks too blue... I would have like to have seen a warm filter used to bring out the sky to counter the blue... otherwsie I love it!
Beautiful scene! Only thing I would have change is to done down the blue in the little water fall. I find it a little distracting but over all good work.
considering all the different colors and the exceptional composition, I have no choice but to give this a high score. one of my favorites, almost unreal in it's beauty.
A beautiful scene, silky falls and a great peek of the sun through the trees. Great work at bringing out the green color in the grass under the low lighting. Super!
What a beautiful capture of a sunset. The natural effect of a sun star throught the tree is execellent. The colors are brilliant, and your camera settings were perfect to create a perfect 10. Good Job!! Hope you do well in this mega large challenge. I will be adding this to my favorites.
